What happens when a bright, open student hits a brick wall?

Dyslexia is hard to diagnose but the effects aren’t hard to see. It affects an equal number of men and women and doesn’t discriminate on the basis of race or ethnicity, culture or language. And it doesn’t discriminate based on intelligence. Even though dyslexia is thought to be the result of a neurological difference, it is not an intellectual disability. Dyslexia is diagnosed in people of all levels of intelligence: average, above average, and highly gifted. And the students, who struggle with it, need help to reach their potential.

DYSLEXIA

Some common signs of dyslexia can often be overlooked, making it hard to diagnose:
HEARING

Has extended hearing; hears things not said or apparent to others; easily distracted by sounds
HEADACHES

Complains of dizziness, headaches or stomach aches while reading
VISION

Extremely keen sighted and observant, or lacks depth perception and peripheral vision
MOTOR SKILLS

Can be ambidextrous, and often confuses left/right, over/under.
BEHAVIOR

Difficulty sustaining attention; seems "hyper" or "daydreamer".

Dyslexic students who feel badly about themselves may not have the social confidence or skill to seek and maintain friendships, and may become withdrawn from friends and family.

Hearing text spoken aloud can make all the difference

Dyslexic students can benefit from triangulating on text, making sure that for every word they see, they are able to access that meaning in other ways, including through images and sound. Often, a simple text reader accommodation can make all the difference.
